Tile repair in Crossbush without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If you have discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, on ceramic tiles, marble and natural stone & granite alike.
Somewhere like Crossbush, floors in older homes have often been down a long time, so a replacement rarely matches. Repairing the damage keeps the original.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Crossbush and across West Sussex. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. For a rural home like those around Crossbush, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while a repair is a single visit.
Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

- What the surface is made of

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy. For a rural address like Crossbush, we plan the journey in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking.

- Next we fill the damage.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
